Trump says Republican Roy Moore must be elected in Alabama

Eric Barnett

President Trump finally broke his silence on embattled Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore Tuesday, telling reporters that Moore denies the sexual misconduct allegations and "you have to listen to him also". "He says it didn't happen", Trump told reporters as he left the White House to spend Thanksgiving at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. He also railed against Democratic Senate nominee Doug Jones and predicted a Moore win in the December special election, followed by Moore helping to enact the agenda of President Donald Trump, who implicitly endorsed Moore at roughly the same time as the Moore event.

Six women have accused Moore of pursuing romantic relationships with them when they were teenagers and he was an assistant district attorney in his 30s. Two have accused him of assault or molestation.

Trump's defense of Moore stands in stark contrast to the approach taken by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and a number of other Republican senators, who have said that they can not support Moore's candidacy and that he should withdraw from the race.

On Tuesday, the presidential deplorable defended the Senate candidate deplorable and damn near endorsed the man for the seat because you know, Moore denies it.

What Trump was saying is that he believes Moore.

Trump's position is a break from other national Republicans, who have called on Moore to step aside.

The allegations against Moore are numerous and credible, and have now been backed up by extensive accounts from others who remember him as a mall-cruising weirdo young women knew to avoid.

The words of prominent Republicans are being used against Alabama's GOP Senate nominee Roy Moore in a campaign ad. "I'm very happy a lot of these things are coming out". Several of the women allege that Moore sexually assaulted or behaved inappropriately toward them years ago.

"He denies it", Trump responded. The ad began airing Monday night. That if Moore says he didn't do these things, then he must not have. "There's a special place in hell for people who prey on children".

Moore's camp has begun firing back at the media and one of the accusers.

The campaign quoted two former restaurant employees and a former customer who said they did not remember Nelson working there or Moore eating there.
